UNSPSC 30162303: Pull out waste basket hardware or assembly

Waste basket built into cabinets

UNSPSC 30162303 Pull out waste basket hardware or assembly is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The most recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not involve waste basket hardware or assembly; instead, they reflect solicitations for countertops, cabinetry, and food waste recycling services that fall outside the code's stated product category. Cities and counties posting these opportunities—including Salt Lake City, Georgia Department of Corrections, City of Tucson, City of Pembroke Pines, Illinois Department of Corrections, and Housing Authority of Clackamas County—are seeking solid surface countertops, quartz countertops, cabinet fabrication and installation, and food recovery services. These categories represent building fixture and furnishing work, not waste basket hardware.

The geographic spread of the misfiled opportunities spans the Southwest (Arizona), Southeast (Florida, Georgia), Midwest (Illinois), and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with the most recent postings between July and October 2026. Representative recent solicitations include the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission's RFQ for a complete millwork package (millwork, casework, and countertops) for a new state prison in Davisboro with an SOQ due November 4, 2026; the City of Pembroke Pines IFB for quartz countertop supply and installation for two housing developments with an estimated project cost of $180,000 and bids due September 22, 2026; and the Housing Authority of Clackamas County's competitive bid for cabinet and countertop replacement across multiple public housing properties with bids due June 3, 2026. The misalignment between code name and recent opportunity scope suggests that this code either sees minimal legitimate activity in state and local procurement or that tagging accuracy for these opportunities is problematic. Firms should verify with issuing bodies directly whether opportunities are correctly categorized before investing in proposal development.
